I have established a personal web page on the descendants of a James McMonigle & Osse Jacobs of Southwestern Pennsylvania through five children who grew to adulthood, married, and had children. Four of these five children would make Harrison County, Indiana their home at one time or another. Several of their descendants migrated to Tulsa County, Oklahoma and the surrounding area at various times. This web site has 38 people and 14 surnames with connections to Tulsa County, primarily allied with the surname of "McMonigle." Any Tulsa County researcher is encouraged to visit this site and determine if they are related to or familiar with any of the family lines involved. Click the web site link below:

Taxi driver Posted by Rachel Henkelmann <rachel-henkelmann@utulsa.edu> on Tue, 11 Apr 2000

At the elementary school named "University School" (which is in conjunction with The University of Tulsa), a badge engraved with: Taxi Driver, Tulsa, 1936, and 990 was found.

McNeal Posted by Dave Dinham <ddinham@birch.net> on Sun, 27 Feb 2000, in response to MC NEAL, WM.City Directory Info, posted by W. E. Sharp on Sun, 27 Feb 2000

I have a William H. McNeal in my tree, brother of John McNeal born in 1830 from whom my mother was a descendent. We know John went to Tulsa and possibly started another family, however we have come to a dead end on this. Possibly a link can be developed somewhere on this. Although this is nearly a century earlier, I wanted to reply in case someone has something on this. We have nothing further on this particular William H. McNeal, however have a lot on John's known family. Possibly your William is from John's new family in Tulsa??
McNeal Posted by W.E.Sharp <bsharp@gvn.net> on Sun, 27 Feb 2000, in response to McNeal family in Tulsa, posted by Dave Dinham on Sun, 27 Feb 2000

Thanks for the post. Our William Cicero McNeal was born in GA or AL in 1864. There are a lot of family stories and I thought I had found his family but did not. He went from AL>AR>OK>NB where he died in 1928. I am trying to see if anything in Jenks Town would give us a clue of his family. It's like he appeared at my grandmother's doorstep one day in 1882 in AL, married her and they went on their travels having 10 children-6 who survived to adulthood.

Mowbray and other funeral homes Posted by Edith Smith <eedeeess@yahoo.com> on Sat, 11 Mar 2000, in response to Rogers Sanitarium and Mobray's Funeral Home, posted by Juanita Murray on Mon, 21 Feb 2000

I just went through a similar search for a death and burial in Tulsa in 1922. All the early 1900 funeral homes were bought or merged with other homes. The records went with the new establishment. There was a flood at some point, destroying almost all records before 1950, if I understood the information correctly. Call Lois at Oaklawn cemetary, 918-591-4325 in Tulsa, OK. She is very knowledgeable and very helpful. Good Luck,

BURDETT'S CONFECTIONARY Posted by LiRae Mullen Sullins <WehyaUsdi@aol.com> on Fri, 11 Feb 2000

I have a photo of my gr-gr-grandparents, James Clinton and Acenith/Cinith (HOFFMAN) BURDETT standing in front of "Burdett's Confectionary". They lived in Oklahoma from 1900 to their deaths. So the store had to be open between 1900 and 1931, at some point. James was born Sept. 27, 1864 in Ohio and died March 1, 1931 in Tulsa. Cinith was born Nov. 2, 1870 in Shaw, Neosho Co., KS and died Jan. 1, 1930 in Turley. They are both buried in Fairlawn Cem., Stillwater, OK. Where was this store at? What town? (Their children and descendants lived/live in Skiatook, Turley, Sperry, Tulsa and Stillwater). Also, what Tulsa newspaper, for the early 1930's, would have had their obits in it? Or where would I search for them? We have been told that Cinith was Cherokee or Osage Indian through her mother (her mother was born in Carthage, Jasper Co., MO Oct. 1841). A cousin's grandmother said they were related to "the rich Indians in Oklahoma". Was she refering to the Osage?
Any and all help on this will be most deeply appreciated.

Knappenberger Posted by Sue Knappenberger Appleton <jsappleton@prodigy.net> on Thu, 10 Feb 2000

A large Knappenberger family research effort is ongoing to tie together all Knappenbergers in the US as one family.

RIVERVIEW ELEM Posted by Mary Charles Dodd Hull <mchull@flash.net> on Sun, 06 Feb 2000

Can someone tell me what happened to Riverview Elem. School in Tulsa. I ran across all of my pictures & newspaper clippings from K thru 4th grade & wondered what has happened to the school as I see it is not listed in the Tulsa public school system.
I don't remember the street but we lived at 719 So.Jackson & I remember walking to school & crossing 11th St [I think].

Riverview Elem Posted by Georgie Drew <georgiana-drew@utulsa.edu> on Wed, 09 Feb 2000, in response to RIVERVIEW ELEM., posted by Mary Charles Dodd Hull on Sun, 06 Feb 2000

The following is copied from the Web page of the Tulsa World.
"Reunion benefit set for Riverview By World's own Service 11/18/1998

A fund-raiser for an upcoming Riverview School Reunion will be held from 6-8 p.m. Saturday at 15th Street and Boulder Avenue.
Riverview was located at 512 W. 12th St. A silent auction of school memorabilia is planned,including paintings by former art teacher Marilyn Edwards Montgomery.
For details, call Martha Rauch at 744-9221; Ann Funston Thompson at 584-0893; Patsy Mathews Terry at 622-2970 or Shelby Mathews Horton 446-2604."

It seems that Riverview was torn down to clear land for a new fire station but I'm not sure.

SILVERTHORN, TIDD Posted by Julie Ward <poohbear@comteck.com> on Sat, 15 Jan 2000

I'm looking for Queen Easter Silverthorn Tidd. On Dec. 11, 1952, Queen applied for a delayed registration of birth in Eaton Co., MI. On the application she gave her maiden name as Silverthorn and her present name as Tidd. She also gave her place of residence as Tulsa Co., OK. I have not been able to find a trace of her after that. She was born Dec. 11, 1894 in Eaton Co., MI to George G. and Eva (Dacon) Silverthorn. Her father was committed insane and after her mother's death, she was given over to her grandmother Abigail (Casler) Dacon. Upon her 18th birthday, she applies to be released from guardianship for reason: married. I haven't found a marriage record, a death record, nothing. Family story says she was last known to be living in Arkansas or Arizona, but I have no proff of either. Story also says she came to Indiana one summer in the first solar powered car to visit her brother, John. Living relatives attest to the truth in that. CAN ANYONE HELP ME FIND HER?! A death place, date, or something??? SSDI has nothing!

I am looking for information on the Sand Springs Testing Co.
My father worked there sometime between 1925-1945. I'm sorry that I don't have any dates, he only listed this in information to be included in his obituary, but no dates. I know he was in Lawrence,KS in 1920, and in Lake Charles, LA by 1945. His name was Laurance Knight Boggs, and he did purchase some property in the area, but my mother doesn't know where. He paid taxes on it for a while, then let someone who had been a friend have it in lieu of taxes. Any one with information on him or the company, please e-mail me, since I can't check very often.
